Then I'll go with the anger thing. Please accept my apologies and convey them to everyone else in the main game thread, and it would be nice if you could also tell them that I really enjoyed playing with them and hope to do it again at a calmer time.

Sorry I missed the fireworks, I ended up traveling to my Mom's this weekend and didn't get a chance to get on the computer until this evening.

I'm thinking claiming to either have self-protected last night, or protected storyteller.
Thoughts?

Not too late to just shake it off and still have a go at it...

Hostile Dialect. Let me point out two things.
One, you are playing well, certainly for a first timer. Two, this game is not unwinnable for the scum, just harder to win.
Yes, that's right, you can still win this game. It is just going to require some effort.

I just don't have effort to spare. 8 PM BST comes right during a critical lecture for me every Thursday. I'm taking the busiest term of my college career and on top of that I have to make up all the work from when I was sick, which includes all of my finals from last quarter, and I also have to plan my research project for next year. I'm burning out and I don't have the time anymore. I can only stay in if there is absolutely, positively no other option. CIAS, when analyzing this situation, please keep in mind that Mafia is now for me an obligation on top of a million other obligations making me want to scream. Is there absolutely no other option?

In other words, you need to sub out. Believe me I understand when RL piles up and the game starts to slip. I will see if anyone unspoilered is interested in taking over for you, if that is what you need.

Well, I'm here now... just wanted to point out that a spoilered person would have been able to sub in for scum so long as said person wasn't publicly known to be spoilered. Anyway, hi guys! Let's win this... I'm gonna be trying to catch up over the next 24-36 hours, so any helpful recaps are appreciated. From what I have seen it looks a little grim for us, but I like a good challenge.

Spoiled/Unspoiled really does depend on the game that is being run as to whether it is fair or not. It is not a bridge I really want to cross, even though in this game it would have little to no impact. Regardless, welcome aboard and good luck.

Welcome to Hell, Paul. Good luck with slogging through all of the past pages. I have skimmed at best. I just subbed in a few days ago, and inherited the joy of being the false-claiming GA. There seems to have been some cantankerous kerfuffle when I arrived, but now you're here subbing for HD and Winston hasn't said much outside of the game thread since I arrived. I do think I may have panicked Winston a bit with the way I posted and voted in my first real participation in the game. Only a few people besides fisheroo seem to have noticed his panic though, so far. Sorry if that freaked you out, Winston, but part of my MO is to try and blur the lines around when I'm legitimately confused and clueless and when I'm just pretending to be.

yeah... thanks for the welcome Cookies.... do they serve beer down here?
I don't mind sticky situations... I've gotten myself out of a few, and we have each other to work with. Just remember, we are a team. We need to bounce ideas off of each other and communicate... otherwise we have no advantage over town.

Just remember it is fluffy posting only until Dusk.
Recaps on the game good. Strategy and tactics, not good.

Oh ok... so we can post here during the Day, but only fluff?
Can you give me a current vote count please? Just so I know if I need to immediately direct my attention anywhere in particular.

Sorry. The restrictions on the scum boards are a new one for me.

I haven't provided an alleged protection target for last night. I can continue to the mum approach, or I was thinking I could claim to have self-protected or protected Storyteller, which is what fisheroo has claimed to have done as the GA. Thoughts on that Paul?
